"The gathering, co-sponsored by the Architectural League and the Cooper Union, attracted a near-capacity crowd of about 700 designers. While the World Trade Center was the main theme, the 21 official speakers did not limit themselves to a discussion of whether to focus on building a memorial or new skyscrapers. The entire process of building in New York must be challenged, they said."
